Rockies 4, Brewers 0
W: Nicasio (4-2) L: Narveson (6-6)
The Milwaukee Brewers road record is getting worse by the game. They cannot seem to figure out how to win in other ballparks.
Chris Narveson got zero run support as he surrendered three earned runs on five hits in six innings. He played well but missed a few of his pitches and the Rockie hitters made him pay for it.
With the potent offense the Brewers have, they should be able to overcome three runs. It seems if they were at home this would not have been a problem, but on the road they can easily lose 1-0. This is a major predicament that needs to be addressed quickly before it is to late.
Prince Fielder and Nyjer Morgan were the only two Brewers to record hits with two each. Bad base running and double plays were the reason why the hits did not count for anything. In another sad note, Ryan Braun's 23-game hitting streak came to an end as he went 0-3. His three at-bats consisted of a strike out, ground out, and ground out double play.
If the Brewers cannot improve on the road they can kiss the division goodbye. With four teams in the hunt for the NL Central, it is only going to get harder down the stretch. Everybody on the team is responsible for the losing that is taking place. This means every player and coach must work extra hard to better themselves in order to better the team.
Zack Grienke looks to give the Brewers a much needed boost Saturday night. Hopefully Milwaukee can grasp on to reality and stop the losing before they dig themselves a hole.
